Cesar is very professional, honest, reasonable, clean and an expert with all roofing repairs.
I was previously scammed by a roofing company who didn't repair my roof correctly and also used cheap materials as well. After, 6 months, my roof started leaking again.
In April 2017, I contacted Cesar whom was extremely helpful and knowledgeable during the estimate site visit. Therefore, I hired him to repair my flat roof and he installed natal on 2 sides of my flat roof and stripped it in with roofing membrane, installed a metal bar inside the gutter and stripped in the seams and installed new roofing membrane as well on other areas.
Cesar did such an amazing job, that my sister hired him within the same week to repair some shingles on her home.
I NOW have a Roofing Contractor to use on all of my future roofing repairs.
Thank you Cesar! Job well done!

Quote for gutter cleaning of 2nd story house very reasonable. Schedule was doable even with storms that week. Stayed in touch and showed up right as scheduled...even few minutes early. Clean up was exceptional like he was never there. I had some concerns about the corners and inspected and assured they were good. Next rain they ran so smooth. They also do install of siding so we will use them for that. Never pushy and answered all questions we had I felt honestly.

This was my first attempt at hiring someone via thumbtack. I won't bore you with the details, but long story short, we ended up choosing Loyola Roofing for a roofing job.
Upon initial contact, I was nearly instantly connected to Phillip Rich, who gave offered to come the same day to to an estimate.
Phillip showed up right on our scheduled time. I felt comfortable with the estimate and the expertise he provided, but my wife was rather adamant that we need to have other bidders give us a quote. It was hard to argue with that.
That did not go so well though. Few estimates later, it was relatively obvious that Loyola was the only sensible choice. I contacted Phillip a day before Thanksgiving hoping he could squeeze us in before, or for, that weekend. He could. The same day we signed the contract. On Friday the project was completed.
Phillip pointed out considerations for future projects and I can honestly say that we would hire him and his company again.
The price was not low, but you get what you pay for.

As an architect, I was looking for the right person to help me with my complete re-roofing project in Naperville and after talking to over 8 contractors I had selected Joe of Fox Restoration because I trusted him and knew that he would do it right and fix any concerns that I may have...bottom line I was right, the project was perfect and he did take action when it came to my input and concerns...he not also showed up everyday to supervise his team but at the end of each day, after his crew left the job site, he even went as far as to do extra cleanup work to make sure the property looked orderly and was safe of any debris and nails on the ground. I would without any hesitation recommend Fox Restoration for any existing or new roofing project...[Thanks so much Joe, you were indeed a true professional who is detailed oriented like myself!]
All the best,
Alex

I had Claudio complete various projects on separate occasions, including hanging 2 new light fixtures, design & install an enclosure around my stove/microwave exhaust, drywall ceiling repair from water damage, repair one broken kitchen cabinet, install doors in basement to cover furnace & hot water heater, paint & install quarter round in living, dining, hallway and bedroom. He did a great job. He even saw my leftover paint and did touch-up paint for me. These were all small projects I had been putting off and now the house looks great. I would hire him again. Thanks Claudio!

Joe did a great job on my bathroom! He started it the next day and got the job completed in 2 days! New toilet vanity, painted walls and trim, and hung a new light fixture! Professional, clean, and completed the job under budget! He is coming back this week to install new flooring and trim in the family room.

Amazing service. I could not have asked for a better roofing company. Everything went amazing. Ali worked well to help process my insurance claim. He picked a great color for the roof. His contractor showers up early and worked late until they fished the job. I had a whole new roof and gutters in 3 days. I'd recommend him to anyone!

I called Quality Way Roofing & Construction to have the flashing on my roof repaired. They came out the next day to give me an estimate and started the work two days later. They were very knowledgeable and detail orient in explaining how the repairs would be completed. All questions and concerns were address. I had my flashing repair and aluminum coating put on my roof. There has been a few storms in this area and I have no more leaks thanks Tommy and Tony at Quality Way Roofing!
They did such a great job on my roof I referred them to my parents to have their brick retainer wall repair and tuck pointing on their front porch. They did a fantastic job!

Steve came out right away and provided a fair estimate. They were able to do our work within a week of the initial consultation and worked with us to schedule the repairs (roofing and tuck pointing). They also provided some free tips that I can do to save money on hiring someone the easy stuff). Overall it was extremely positive experience and we would consider using them again. BTW - His worker went above and beyond the work listed on the estimate and didn't charge a penny extra.

Last year we sustained hail damage to our home. Our insurance agent recommended Joel to complete the work. HGR replaced our roof, siding, gutters, and patio door. Everyone who worked on our home was courteous and professional. The materials and craftsmanship were excellent. Joel did a wonderful job overseeing the work, answering all of our questions, and keeping us informed throughout the entire process. We are so thankful to Joel and HGR for making the repairs to our home go so smoothly. We have already recommended Joel to our family and friends.

I will highly recommend this roofing company. They replaced my entire roof down to the deck and installed brand new high quality plywood. They are very professional and really know what they are doing. Dave Miller is the person I dealt with. Very honest business owner. He gave me the correct advise on how to move with my roofing project. Absolutely no rip off business. They arrived on time and got the job done on time. I had couple minor problems during the work but it was very well professionally addressed and I got reimbursed with no questions asked. Their pricing is very competitive. I would highly recommend home owners to contact APR contracting first before talking to other contractors. Thanks.

Q & A

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Thumbtack.

What is a standing seam metal roof?

A standing seam metal roof may be a strong, durable, safe choice when you’re considering metal roofing installation options. A standing seam refers to the raised seam where the sheet metal roofing panels join. Traditionally, shingles and roof panels lie flush to the roof, making them more prone to rust or penetration by water at their seams. In a standing seam metal roof, the raised (or standing) seams run vertically from the roof ridge to the eaves, with no horizontal seams. In addition, the fasteners joining the metal panels together are concealed, providing even fewer opportunities for water or moisture to build up. The cost to install a standing seam metal roof will depend on the type of metal you select, the size of your roof, and the cost of roofing labor in your region. Materials will play a major role in your metal roofing installation costs. If you select standard galvanized steel, the cost per square (100 square feet) might be in the $150-$300 range, while a high-end choice such as copper or zinc could be between $1,000 and $1,500 per square. Here is one example of cost:

Standing seam metal roof: $300 per square to start, including materials and labor.

A 30-square roof could cost $9,000 or more.

Can a metal roof be installed over shingles?

Metal roofs are durable, environmentally friendly, safe and budget-friendly. If you’re considering an update, metal roofing installation doesn’t have to mean completely removing your old roof. In many cases, metal roofing can be installed over your existing shingles. Research building codes in your state, as many require that after two roofs have been installed, all roofing materials must be completely removed before a third roof can be put on. This protects your home’s structural integrity and your family’s safety. Carefully read contractor reviews and choose someone with extensive experience with metal roofing installation. One concern when installing metal over shingles is that over time, condensation can build on the shingles and cause the metal to rust. This will lead to rust around the panels, making them more likely to come loose in a storm. Nationally, the average cost for metal roofing installation ranges from $6,000 to $20,000. The wide price range represents different roof sizes, different types of metal, and the cost of labor in different parts of the country — and can also include the cost of removing an old shingle roof prior to installing the metal. As a line item, the average cost of removing an old roof to prepare for installing a new roof, plus adding new roof decking, costs on average about $45-$75 per square (the pro roofer’s term for 100 square feet), depending on the pitch of the roof. Always make sure you have a clearly written contract and a warranty on both the labor and the metal.

How much does it cost for a metal roof?

Metal roofing installation is an attractive option thanks to metal’s long lifespan, hardiness and fire-retardant properties. Nationally, the average cost for metal roofing installation ranges from $6,000 to $20,000.There are different types of metal roofs, each with their own installation needs and materials costs. Roof size also affects your metal roofing installation costs, as do regional labor rates. Roof size is measured in squares; one square equals 100 square feet. Here are some examples of the average cost for a metal roof:

Standard metal roof: $120-$150 per square to start, including materials and labor

A 30-square roof (a 3,000-square-foot roof) could cost between $3,600 and $4,500 for a typical three-bedroom home.

Snap-Loc metal roof: $200-$225 per square to start, including materials and labor.

A 30-square roof could cost $6,000-$6,750.

Standing seam metal roof: $300 per square to start, including materials and labor.

A 30-square roof could cost $9,000 or more.

Tuff-Rib metal roof: $250-$350 per square to start, including materials and labor.

A 30-square roof could cost $7,500-$10,500.

Mid-range metal roof package, including all accessories: $300-$500 per square.

A 30-square roof could cost $9,000-$15,000.

High-end metal roof package — such as zinc or copper — and all accessories: $1,000-$1,500 per square.
